Forums - Sony - Sony Employees Respond to 'PS4 No DRM' Campaign

key word being.......

passion



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Somehow I doubt that the employees that are responding aren't nearly high enough on the corporate ladder to make a difference, especially if EA and Activision are putting pressure on Sony.

But this can only go all-or-nothing. Either Sony follows MS and its all cancelled out or Sony doesn't do it and MS would have to follow suit to be on even terms.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

lol...all this group circle jerking and no one mentions if DRM will be present or not on the PS4.



Please know that we hear you. <3

 

I hope so.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

By the way... it is interesting that the Sony fans feel it necessary to petition for this.

It seems incongruous with all the comments I keep hearing about Sony loving gamers and how "they'd never do this"

Perhaps they're not the same exact people?

Come on Sony. If you back out, Microsoft has to and we get 3 good consoles this generation instead of 1.

"We hear you"

Hearing and listening are two different things.

Sony: Due to immense pressure from 3rd parties, we unfortunately have to inplement DRM features. But know that we are still abou the games and share the passion of our fans.As a token of our appreciation, please download these 2 PS4 exclusives for free. On us.

Gamers: Seems legit.

I can see this happening. Sony might be forced to do it but will play the victim card and give away a couple free AAA games and all would be forgiven; at least Sony wouldn't be considered the bad guy.

 The campaign has already gotten lots of support from Sony officials such as Scott Rohde PlayStation Software Product Development Head for Sony Worldwide Studios America, John Koller, the head of Sony Hardware Marketing, Sony senior business development manager Shadid Kamal Ahmed,Also tons of big journalist such as Destructoid's Jim Sterling and  Jason Schreier. Confirmed on their twitters.So if you don't wont Sony going the route MS is going with the XBONE(having to install every game to the harddrive and linking the game to one Xbox and charging full price/fee for a used game)

Than you should let your voice be heard by tweeting. #PS4NoDRM #PS4USEDGAMES

My biggest piece of advice is be respectful. They aren't likely to finish a tweet in all caps threatening them. 

Shuhei Yoshida (president of worldwide studios) @yosp (easily the highest level person on twitter and quite accessible)

John Koller (head of hardware marketing) @jpkoller (dude has like 150 followers - heh)

Guy Longworth (senior vice president PlayStation Brand Marketing) @luckylongworth

Scott Rohde (PlayStation Software Product Development Head for Sony Worldwide Studios America) @rohdescott

****NEW*** Adam Boynes (Publisher and developer relations at Sony) @amboynes

****NEW*** Shahid Kamal Ahmad (third party relations, europe) @shahidkamal

****New*** Nick Accordino (SCEA ISD A. Producer) @nikoro

#PS4NoDRM #PS4USEDGAMES  are the hashtags being used

the original thread called "Is Sony listening? Let them know... #PS4NoDRM #PS4USEDGAMES" can be seen on Neogaf forums.



I hope they listen, because Sony will be in even more financial trouble if they go through with this.



Estelle and Adol... best characters ever! XD

PsVita's savior has spoken, so I trust
